Here’s to the Soul Dogs

To all the dogs that walk beside us on adventures, ready and eager to take one more step as long as they are with us. Happy to smell the fresh air, and maybe one more tree if you don’t mind. To the dogs that plop down by our feet when we’re tired or have one more thing to work on before we call it quits for the day. To the dogs that know when we need an extra snuggle or a little bit of sympathy. Here’s to the dogs that run to the door when we come home, wagging their tails so hard their back feet spin on tippy toes from side to side. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Here’s to the soul dogs that change our lives forever, always for the better, they make our houses homes and fill our hearts with joy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Here’s to you Leo, you sweet soul dog, you. A furry best friend that’s departed on his own walk, an adventure only he can make. He’ll take with him a piece of your heart, not to cause you pain, but to make his solo journey just a little bit easier. After all, you’re his person, and all his very best adventures have been with you. Rest easy sweet Leo.
